The Rotorua district is home to a thriving and growing arts and cultural community. Renowned as a tourist destination, Te Arawa iwi have been welcoming visitors and sharing their arts and cultural traditions with the world for over 100 years.
Like the pictures of a book, arts and crafts are the pages of the Maori culture. It’s how stories were told and passed down through generations, how traditions and genealogy are preserved. History is carved and woven into meeting houses, canoes, weapons and jewellery.
See the passion and creativity displayed in visual arts & crafts using traditional and contemporary methods in a variety of mediums.
